Colts re-sign RB Christine Michael

The Indianapolis Colts re-signed running back Christine Michael, the team announced Wednesday afternoon.

The Colts signed Michael to a one-year deal in 2017 but he missed the entire season due to an injury he suffered in June, well before the start of the regular season.

While Michael has bounced around the league since being drafted in second round of the 2013 NFL Draft by the Seattle Seahawks, he does present some upside to a rushing attack that was near the bottom of the league in 2017.

A physical runner, Michael will join a backfield that currently includes Marlon Mack, Robert Turbin, Matt Jones, Josh Ferguson and George Winn.

This signing won’t impact the Colts from looking for another running back in free agency and the 2018 NFL Draft as they are still without a starting option.

The contract details of Michael’s signing haven’t been announced or recorded yet.
